The main objective of the tour is to explain to Ghanaians and the voting populace in general the key thematic areas of the NDC campaign pillars, thus investing in jobs, people and the economy. He will also explain the reasons why at this stage of our nationhood, it is very important for the people to vote for a social –democratic party as opposed to a property owning democratic oriented party.

One of the highlights of the trip will be the “Obama town hall meeting with students”where Hon. John Mahama will interact with students in the Koforidua metropolis in a very open and frank manner.

Fellow countrymen and women, the Obama rocket is now heading to the east where the sun rises, please get on board and don’t be left out!!!

Signed;

Julius Debrah E/R NDC Chairman.
